The Lair

Was just about to chime In. I’m going to try this stuff called steel-it for the priming coat when I redo my bumpers/skids

 

What’s the benefit of it over self etching primer?

 

its free

 

The paint has dried enough to handle, so brought them inside to cure for a few days. Also keeps them dry from the rain! My booth wasn’t cutting it on water proofness

 

Read up on the application. It’s essentially a powder coat alternative in a can. Pretty solid stuff.

 

That stuff is cool but holy SHIT that's expensive.

 

Looks like $9 a can

 

That's not bad. I was seeing $30 a can on Amazon.

$36 Steel-It 1002B Polyurethane Aerosol, Protects Against Corrosion, Industrial Paint Coatings, Heat/Wear Resistant, Weldable, Food Safe, Easy to Apply - Steel Gray (1 Pack)

Well when I re googled I got $21 . So maybe it is a bit expensive. Your paint goes from a $30 coat total to probably upwards of $150

 

Yeah. On skids and sliders that take a beating, I think spray paint is better. This stuff wouldn't be bad on bumpers though where you only need to touch up small areas.

 

@bski22 just bought myself one of these bad boys. I couldn't help myself.

Yea plus now that you’re almost a professional welder you could weld right through this stuff and fix all your broken shit from wheeling hard af

 

Yaaaaasss! Message approved

 

Yea I mean I’m seriously considering it to re do areas of my bumper that were shittily re powder coated by the same shitty company that did it the first time.

Correct me if I’m wrong but isn’t there also a rustoleum product that is good for use over currently rusted areas. And isn’t it marketed as to stop and conceal rusted areas. Also I think it supposed to stop the rust from continuing.

Or am I just making things up?

 

r u thinking of POR15?

 

You're right! But personally I'd take an angle grinder and flap disc and remove the rust first to get down to clean metal.

No that’s for some serious restoration projects

Flap disc is the move @EatSleepTacos

 

Thats more than decent!!

 

Look up corroseal or korroseal.
